Getting Frustrated!
So for 2 weeks now I have been eating 1200-1400 calories a day. When I exercise I try to eat a little more. I am having a problem with my sodium intake, but I'm working on it. The first week I lost 4 lbs, last week I lost 3 lbs, and the past 3 days the scale hasn't moved. My clothes are fitting better, I was pulling up my…

More motherly motivation/advice
So my mother...where shall I start? I told her I'd lost some weight finally...and her reaction was (paraphrased) to stop eating like a pig and try to be like my grandmother. That she stayed a waif all her life and always looked beautiful, and all I had to do was try harder. My grandmother ate one 2-egg omelette a day with…

P90x, is it good? safe?
Hey guys, Have you guys done or tried the p90x? Is it any good or safe? I haven't been working out, but I've been eating healthy. I'm trying to see if I can loose 10-20 more lbs and tone down. I have some loose fat I want to get rid of. Would the p90x work for me if I stick to it, or should I go another route? I feel like…

Back to the inaccurate weight?
Okay so here's my predicament. When I first got on this website, I had put in the weight that was on my drivers license. With the daily goals the website set for me, I think I lost about three pounds in ten days which made me feel way good! However I realized, that I was actually a bit heavier when I started so I went in…

Under/over my allotted calorie intake
So with my lifestyle, which I'm ashamed to admit includes barely any time for exercise, allows me 1280 calories per day. How important is it that I eat that many calories per day? What happens if I go below it?

Trying to Lose Not Only Weight But My Huge Sweet Tooth
Hello everyone. I like many of us here have a huge sweet tooth. After most meals I feel the need to eat something sweet. Most of the time it will be chocolate. I just won't eat a serving size or maybe have just a few bites, I go crazy. I don't know why I have this insane craving after every meal. All I know is that I want…

Probably a silly questions about under/over calories
So, I'm not sure I'm doing this right. I want to lose about 10 pounds. I'm allotted 1,200 calories a day and I work a desk job so I chose the "sedentary" category. Some days I'll eat about 1,000 because I'm simply not that hungry. Some days I'll eat 1,600. At least 3 times a week, I do 1.5-2 hours of exercise and burn…

Excercise tracked, calories added
Question for hopefully someone. When you log your exercise, it automatically adds calories to your daily allowance. Is there a way to shut that off? I've been instructed by my Dr. to consume 1200 calories a day. I know that with exercise you "earn" calories, but I don't want to use them everyday to help with my weight loss…

Should I really be this upset, or am I just overreacting?
I'm pretty laid back. It takes a lot to get me upset. I've had plenty of friends tell me that they can't tell a difference since I've lost weight and it doesn't affect me at all- heck, I can't even see it myself most of the time! So why would I be upset with them for being honest? Obviously I'm not. I have this one friend,…

So.. I am 5"4 and 206lbs. My BMI is 35 AKA morbidly obese. Would anyone care to look at my picture and tell me what the heck is morbidly obese about me? It makes me feel horrible.

WHY O WHY???
So it took a lot of work and time for me to lose weight, ever the slightest amount. But then I go and gain it back in what seemed like a matter of days. I have no excuses for not fitting fitness and nutrition into my very hectic and busy schedule. I'm frustrated at how hard it is to lose weight but it so easily comes back.…

Under/Over Calories
Is it possible to overeat one day and make up for the next day by eating less? Or vice versa. Can you under eat one day and eat more the next day? I was wondering because there was one day where I overate, but the next day I was not as hungry so I did not eat almost the same amount of cals that I overate the previous day.…

Getting my husband on board :)
How do you get your SO on board with your weight loss goals? My husband is the cook in my house. I don't cook at all. I hate cooking, he loves it, so that's the arrangment :) . It's kind of an unspoken deal that my husband makes the food and that's what we eat. Most of the time he will just ask me do I want chicken, fish,…

Taking Measurements
When I started my weight loss journey a year ago...I didn't go near that big bad cloth strip thing with numbers...I didn't want to know how wide my waist or hips or bust were. They were just too big. But now that I'm on the other side of big I regret not taking my measurements to know how far I've come. What about you?…

starting all over again
I've tried losing weight before but stopped for a while due to work. I stopped in Feb. and gained back 10 pounds. Which is a downer but I tried to eat as healthy as possible, if it wasn't for that I probably would've gained all the weight back and then some. So, it's a fresh start and I'm feeling pretty glad because I like…

man-titties
I've been getting some but not all of the results i'm looking for in my weight loss journey. My overall fitness is certainly improving, my cardio is much better than it used to be, people are telling me I look lighter. In the last 3 months i've managed to drop from 210 to 185. All of this I'm absolutely stoked about, don't…

I've used one of those pedometers once or twice, it was kind of motivating then I stopped using them. now Im new on this website and just figuring it out... I was wondering if there's an option here to log in the steps we've done in a day so it calculates? its probably too much detail to ask. but maybe if there's a way we…

tips for retaining water??
I am really frustrated because I'm pretty sure I have lost weight but I am retaining water so badly that the scales won't move (at least they aren't going up). I've been drinking lemon water first thing in the morning because that is supposed to help and I've been drinking mint tea because the mint is supposed to sooth the…

Is this bad?
Man, some of the things my child will notice is unreal. She is turning 4 years old next week. I do watch what I eat and tend to choose healthier options most of the time. We do not eat out a lot (and I mean as a family if we go out to eat it's like once every 3 months, if that). So we cook healthier food at home for…
